Rams C Scott Wells is due a $1 million roster bonus on March 12.

Old, injury riddled, and ineffective on the field, Wells is a prime release candidate. He's also due $1 million in per-game roster bonuses and a $2 million base salary. The Rams do not have a starting center in waiting, but Wells' release should be a formality. He turned 34 in January. Feb 8 - 12:53 PM

Rams C Scott Wells was forced from Week 8 against the Chiefs with an elbow injury.

Wells had previously played every offensive snap this season. His loss may be a positive for the Rams, as Wells is PFF's worst center. Second-year OL Barrett Jones is in at center for the Rams. Sun, Oct 26, 2014 03:25:00 PM

Rams C Scott Wells has restructured his contract.

Entering the third year of a four-year deal, Wells' 2014 base salary has been reduced from $5.5 million to $1 million. He'll get some of that money back in the form of a $1.65 million roster bonus and $850,000 in per-game roster bonuses. The restructure is a firm sign the Rams have penciled Wells in as their starting center for one more year, ahead of sophomore Barrett Jones. Mon, Jun 9, 2014 12:39:00 PM

Wells counts $6.5 million against the cap, and the Rams could save $4.5 million by releasing him. But with none of the Rams' five offensive line positions settled, it would be wise to keep the 33-year-old around as a stabilizing presence. Wells fractured his fibula in December but will be fine for camp. Wed, Mar 5, 2014 01:40:00 PM

Brian Quick is still "at a relatively early stage" in his rehab from shoulder surgery.

"I’m doing range of motion right now, just trying to get that strength back," Quick said. "I’m using a little weight right now, a three-pound weight." Quick went down in Week 8, tearing his rotator cuff and three other ligaments inside his shoulder. He's facing a long recovery and is expected to miss OTAs before hopefully being back for training camp. Quick has one year left on his contract.
